Should I feel quilty for eating poor innocent vegetables?

Question

I swear I hear this poor little lettuce wedge scream today when I cut it in half at lunch today! I lost my appetite and felt like a murderer!

Answer 1

That scream probably just came from the voices in your head.  

Answer 2

Yes, if you feel bad about eating animals, you should also for vegetables.

Answer 3

Hey if you really are hearing screaming, you might have to see a psychiatrist, you might have some crazy tinnitus going on in your ears.  If you'd rather prefer to stop eating vegetables, then stop.  Instead, leave it out, and get constipated from lack of fiber.  

I find it funny that non-vegetarian people make fun of vegetarians by saying "you're killing helpless vegetables!"  Honestly, what sort of argument is that?  Doesn't everyone eat vegetables?  

Answer 4

Sorry I dont know what the word quilty means. If you feel that way then I guess your going to starve. Good ridens!

Answer 5

you should feel guilty for not knowing how to spell GUILTY. You're retarded. Go to school, please.

Answer 6

It beats eating meat, which requires 10 times as many vegetables to be killed as eating vegetables does. I wouldn't worry about the vegetables, considering they can't feel pain as they lack nervous systems. They also don't have vocal chords, so you were just hearing things, it couldn't have screamed.  

Answer 7

yes. you should be  thrashed  senseless with a knotted rope

Answer 8

Haha that is funny!!!

Answer 9

no...veggies aren't like animals. they don't have brains and aren't able to feel like animals. so don't feel bad. just keep being veggie cause then you're really saving lifes (of animals, i mean) :-)

Answer 10

No wonder why everyone says "...Hey everybody! Lets go make fun of the Vegans!"

Answer 11

Of course vegetables are living beings and you should respect them as any other living creature in this planet. Try some stones they are not alive and I assure that the only sound you'll hear it's the one of your cracking teeth.

Answer 12

well maybe if i knew what quilty meant.

Answer 13

That poor little lettuce never did you any harm Herman ..... how could you? Repent my son. ;0)

Answer 14

No, you should feel guilty for spamming Y! Answers.

Answer 15

No, you should not feel quilty.  I suppose that feeling "quilty" is how Quilted Northern Toilet Tissue feels.  

By the way, you should not feel GUILTY either.  That lettuce was asking for it by looking so delicious.

*I'm not a vegetarian because I love animals...I'm a vegetarian because I HATE PLANTS.* =)

Answer 16

No you Should.nt

Answer 17

The scream came from your dog.  You sat on the poor thing!  You should feel "quilty"

Answer 18

Ha! As someone who sees value in ALL living things...I also am one of those crazies who feels guilty for pulling out a weed or yes, eating a plant. But the reality is, things have to die so we can live. That is just the nature of the ecosystem. We need to eat these plants to get the nutrients we need to live.

While plants don't have a Central Nervous System per se, they do respond to external stimuli. For instance, plants will turn towards the sunlight. I find that adaptation fascinating.

Very funny...but you also make a good point. ;)
